Jesse Metcalfe

  • Profession: Actor
  • Place/Date of Birth: Carmel Valley, California, 09 December 2020
  • Associated with: Nadine Coyle

The hunky actor - who plays sexy gardener John in Desperate Housewives - could take over from Harry Potter’s Daniel Radcliffe when his run in the controversial play ends, reports the Daily Mirror.

It means fans would see Jesse, 28, strip off to play a young man with a bizarre obsession with horses.

"Jesse is a massive talent and it would be great for him to make his West End debut in Equus," a source told the paper.

The actor, who is dating Girls Aloud’s Nadine Coyle, is currently in rehab after checking in last month for "alcohol issues".

A spokesman for the star said in a statement: "On Monday March 19, Jesse Metcalfe entered a rehab facility to deal with alcohol issues.

"He realised he had a problem and was anxious to deal with it immediately."

Desperate Housewives hunk Jesse Metcalfe has gone into rehab over "alcohol issues", it was reported today.

A spokesman for the star, who is dating Girls Aloud singer Nadine Coyle, confirmed to the New York Post that the 28-year-old had become the latest celebrity to enter a treatment centre.

"On Monday March 19, Jesse Metcalfe entered a rehab facility to deal with alcohol issues," the representative said in a statement.

"He realised he had a problem and was anxious to deal with it immediately."

He added that Jesse hoped he would get the privacy he needed to "deal properly with his treatment".

Nadine, 21, and the actor, who plays John the gardener in the hit show, have talked about moving in together in Los Angeles.

News of Jesse’s rehab stint came after a report in the Post that he had indulged in four days of partying at Hollywood’s trendy Mondrian Hotel.

Jesse’s hotel checkout - Mar 21 2007
Desperate Housewives’ actor Jesse Metcalfe is facing the wrath of a posh Los Angeles hotel after his alleged bad behaviour apparently got him banned from the establishment.

The New York Post reports that Jesse is no longer welcome at the world famous Mondrian Hotel on the Sunset Strip in Hollywood, thanks to his "arrogance" towards the hotel workers.

Says the paper, Jesse was "blacklisted [after] partying for four days straight last week and being really mean to the staff."

The celeb-friendly Mondrian can put up with a fair bit, but they decided they had had enough when he showed up at the exclusive Skybar (which is part of the hotel) and "blew up at the doorman because they wouldn’t let him in".

The star has yet to comment on his supposed banning, but he has admitted in the past to getting rowdy whilst drunk.

Jesse is currently dating Girls Aloud-er Nadine Coyle, but it is not known whether she was with him at the time.

Biography

Jesse Eden Metcalfe was born to French/Italian Scott Metcalfe and Portuguese/Italian Nancy DeMaio.  Although a talented Basketball player at school in Conneticut, where he lived after his birth, Jesse chose not to follow the ’jock’ route and instead attended New York University’s Tisch School of Arts before dropping out to pursue a career as a writer and director.

In the late 90s however Jesse turned to acting, moving to LA and successfully auditioning for the role of Miguel Lopez-Fitzgerald in daytime soap Passions.  In late 2003 he appeared in Smallville and shortly afterwards quit Passions and bagged a role as gardener John Rowland in new drama Desperate Housewives.  The role would not only open new doors for Jesse’s career but make his one of the most lusted after torsos in television.

Although his role was cut back in the second series and he appeared only once in the third Jesse has maintained that he is still in contract with Housewives and hopes to play a larger role again.  Meanwhile he has branched out in to movies with the lead role in teen comedy John Tucker Must Die, released in 2006.

In early 2006 Jesse met Girls Aloud singer Nadine Coyle and although rumours have done the rounds that they had split reports that they were married in 2007 continue.
